Once fried, transfer it to a plate.

Now add celery, carrot, onion, garlic, and thyme to in the same pot and stir it until the vegetables begin to soften, for about 5 to 7 minutes.

Then add the bay leaves, chicken, and 10 cups water and bring it to simmer.

Cook them until the chicken is tender, for about 30 minutes.

Shred the chicken with forks and return it to the pot again.

In the meanwhile, in a bowl whisk ½ cup of flour, 2 cups of previously preparing chicken – vegetable broth and ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper.

Slowly whisk the flour mixture back into the pot and simmer it until it’s slightly thickened, for about 10 minutes.

Simmer it to 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent dumpling from sticking.
